This is the video for Cascada’s newest single, and I have a couple of things I’d like to say. So I will use a numbered list:
Whoever is in charge of picking her singles needs to be fired.
Just when we thought this album would signal a new sound for her, she releases this turd that sounds just like everything else she’s ever made (only more boring).
How long did this video concept take to create? Two minutes?
Cascada officially has the most boring, predictable music videos ever.
The guy in this video is ugly.
All of this doesn’t change the fact that Cascada is a major guilty pleasure of mine.
In its original form, this song isn’t that terrible. Yeah… It’s a little cheesy, with its lyrics about love, lovers, lust, and stuff, and that chorus is so unbelievably catchy. It’s just begging for a dance beat…
So you really kick up the awful factor when you consider a recent remake by Cascada. It’s no secret that I love dance covers of songs from the ’80s. Of course I ate this shit up. This song was destined to be covered by Cascada, with her powerful voice and powerfully generic beats. It’s too bad it never got released here in the U.S… I think it could have done pretty well (on my iPod, at least).
Every one-hit wonder ’80s ballad should be remade into a dance-pop song. And every video of those remakes should feature dorky-cute librarians and sexy European singers.
Now please excuse me while I go dance on some bookshelves.
